The element <input type="date" /> cannot be activated.
When I click on the fields on the emulator it doesn't show me the entrance date but the android keyboard.

Take a look at this: http://www.quirksmode.org/html5/inputs_mobile.html
It tells you which html5 input types and attributes work on each browser. It looks like the datepicker isn't working for most Androids, and thus it would show as a simple text input.

So I have to use javascript for dates

I'm 99% sure about that. Html5 is not mature enough yet.

@MedAmine if this solved your question in any way, please consider accepting the answer.

I guess he wanted a factory feature, as mobiscroll is javascript based. However, it is a good alternative

Update: newer devices like Samsung Galaxy S3 and S4 do support this Element.

You could use Trigger.io's UI module to use the native Android date / time picker with a regular HTML5 input. Doing that does require using the overall framework though (so won't work as a regular mobile web page).
You can see before and after screenshots in this blog post: http://trigger.io/cross-platform-application-development-blog/2012/11/16/new-feature-roundup-native-date-time-picker-analytics-with-flurry-android-events/

Have a look here: How to make the HTML5 input type 'date' trigger the native datepicker on Android?
mobiscroll.com offers a nice polyfill.
